>>Who is lying here. The CIA or the President?<<

There's little doubt that both of them cooperated very well at the time to do the trick and pave the way to Iraq war.

Now, after the invasion and occupation with 200,000 troops in Iraq, they still failed to produce the "evidence" of WMDs while disasters in that country and the casualties of the US troops are mounting (not to mention the moral, political, financial and diplomatic costs for America caused by the war). Both CIA and the White house are feeling the heat and the political pressure these days. And quite naturally, they start finger pointing to each other.

But bottom line in time is, both of them are just the tools of the powerhouse. If the problem continues to grow, well, one of these guys will become a scapegoat and get kicked out later. The powerhouse will just install another tool in the position and continue the same venture.

Let’s wait and see.
